Colour code of the day; silver bullets and black as black as midnight on a moonless night. Or as black as the moist ink on my thesis sketches. Those creatures on the paper consume most of my daily hours and when I escape them at night, they invade my dreams.I rather enjoyed this odd outfit, silver deer antlers and hoof-like shoes and new shimmery lids to dream under. This dark and silvery colour scope seems to be my code for most days, some of you have asked don't I ever get bored with black and I can say that I don't really miss wearing colours. This, like all sides of style, might change in the future, who knows! I love colours, but I don't need vibrant shades around when my imagination is already filled with them.

Quickly the silver found its way into my suitcase too. Tomorrow I'm heading off to Helsinki Burlesque Festival weekend, the train engines start to roar in the early hours of the morning and I still have no clue on what to wear! Sounds so familiar..! So I'll just pack some treasures and conjure up something from the chaos when I get to the headquarters, a.k.a my sister's sofa. Sounds like a plan.

I wish you all have a lovely weekend!

I'll be working part-time at the festival so feel free to come and say hi if you happen to see me. :)

Your outfits always looks so well put together and perfectly accessorised! I remember seeing a YouTube video years and years ago of a woman walking in those hoof like shoes and I remember thinking how crazy they looked and couldn't imagine it being very easy to walk in! Now they are all the rage thanks to JC! I think the best ones I have seen are the ones with spikes covering the back of the heel!

I just adore Sugarpill! I am guessing that is Tiara on your lids, one of the best silver pigments around! I fully recommend Asylum to you if you haven't already got it that is! I finally got my hands on it a few weeks ago and it is the most perfect metallic shimmery deep-ish red shade, it causes me enter a makeup candy induced coma whenever I use it! :P

Thanks so much! It's actually really easy to walk in these, and I'm sure that the ones by JC are easy to walk in too. I've heard the hoof shoes are an old thing in the fetish world, I guess that's where JC snatched them. I'm glad he did, without the hype there wouldn't be so many different versions out there!

And yes, you're absolutely right! It's Tiara, I also bought Stella this time and I'm loving both of these shades. I was supposed to buy Lumi as well but I forgot all about while making the order, haha. I considered ordering Asylum too, but decided to leave it until next time.

*Sigh*.. and I feel sorry that you have a need to say such things. I don't care about my weight and I have no idea of how many kilos I carry, but my shape has been the same for a good share of time and I'm happy with it. I'm healthy, not skinny. Not that it's any of your business, really.

Even when her/his opinion wasn't asked for nor if it's non of their concern, there's absolutely no need to be rude. Perhaps he/she was concerned being that in an earlier post you said something about being sick.

Anonymous: Do you have any idea how tired bloggers get when people comment about their weight? It feels so ridiculous, weight is highly irrelevant and eventually you just get tired and might answer bluntly. There's no rules that oblige bloggers to be super nice to every remark. Critique is a different thing than judging blogger's appearance, that's just bullying. And I didn't mean to be rude, but the first commentator obviously didn't have my best interest in mind while commenting.

And Hanna, thank you. <3 I agree, every woman is beautiful, and there's no way of having a "right" body. And thank you for the lovely compliment!

Mothmouth, I really need your help! Next week I have a party and I have a lovely outfit, but it totally lacks a fascinator and you are the fascinator-goddess. My outfit will be latex high socks, little gloves and a short skirt and the top will be flower-lace and a cute bra under it, all black ofcourse. It needs to be sexy and elegant. Do you know any webshops that have a nice fscinator for this outfit and can deliver before end of next week? Or do you have tips how to make one myself?

Oh I'm so sorry GlitteGun for responding so late! :/ All you really need is Etsy or eBay, they both have a great collection of all different sorts of fascinators. You just have to enter the right key words to find the one you're looking for. It's also easy to make one yourself, there's plenty of good tutorials to be found through Google! I hope you managed to get the fascinator in time!

I simply don't understand how you do, but you keep on and on putting out an lovely outfit over and over again. I like the combination with the covered bodice with a little bit of skin below. Wishing you a pleasant weekend.

I'm confused because I found a blog similar to yours: http://horrorshow-throughxthexlookingxglass.blogspot.co.at - is this also you - or someone pretending to be you?There's also a Facebook page with your photos and stuff: https://www.facebook.com/VioletaxKendrickxGDRP
